Old Blarney Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Ah, memories. Donnybrook Bus Garage. This is a reminder of the building of Donnybrook Bus Garage for us, the Older Generation. Possibly the younger people amongst us may be unaware it was firstly, a Tramcar Depot. An additional Bus Garage was added by Dublin United Tramways (1896) Ltd and finally CIE demolished the Tramcar Depot. They replace it with the Depot that graces the site today. http://makingirelandmodern.ie/2016/10/17/making-ireland-modern-bus-tour/ OB.

jhb171achill Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Interesting..... A study of all Dublin's depots, or what remains of them, would be good to have. I'd do it myself if I had time. A few years I went up to the erstwhile site of the Blessington steam tram terminus at Terenure. Nothing's left, not that there were many buildings to start with; it was levelled after it closed in the 30s and replaced by a fine art-deco 1930s style cinema - itself now long run-down and converted into a cut price carpet shop until recently.

Beside the cinema was built one of Dublin's first automatic telephone exchanges, opened on the first day of 1936. The orientation of that building (on my only visit some 30-odd years ago) appeared to me to be towards the Templeogue Road, so I would imagine it was built on the tramway yard. Edit: Having just checked Maps, the exchange was just to the north of the Tramway yard. The cinema is now an Enterprise Centre.

skinner75 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 What an interesting deviation for a For Sale thread, in the For Sale section. The info posted on tram depots will of course be unfindable in the future, as noone will think of looking in a For Sale thread for info on tram depots.

Maybe a mod could split it off into a separate tread entitled Dublin's Tram Depots or similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
